Fully equipped kitchen. Pond in the back was a wonderful feature that we all enjoyed.

Everything was perfect. We had the best time with our boys! The party barge was a HUGE success with the older two who were literally up at 5am each morning to get their fishing stuff together and spend the morning on the lake catching fish and hanging out. That allowed us busy, always on the go mommas to sleep in and just have lazy mornings for the first time in months. We truly enjoyed our stay and could not have been happier with the location to everything. We ate lunch at the Feed Bin and it was delicious!!!! Highly recommend!

My daughter, my three small grandsons, and I enjoyed our stay very much. We had very comfortable beds, plenty of room, and a well supplied kitchen. It was so nice to wake up early and enjoy the front porch with a cup of coffee and then later sit out back and watch the boys run around and explore the yard. The property is situated on a nice quiet country road.

We were so impressed with the cleanliness of the house, it had plenty of room for the five of us.
My grandkids had plenty of room to play outside. The boat was an added bonus that my son in law and grandson loved. I think we might’ve heard one vehicle pass in front of the house in the five days we were there. There’s plenty of pots and pans, towels and linens. We felt at home while we were there.

The house was awesome. We enjoyed the place tremendously! Loved taking the boat out and catching fish. It was so peaceful and relaxing after a day of digging for diaminds. Unfortunately, we did not score any diamonds but we will be back. :)

The home was inviting and clean. Homemade brownies were waiting for us after a long drive, which was a nice touch. We came prepared with our own tools for diamond digging, but it was nice to have a few extras there at the house for us. I would highly recommend this home to anyone wanting to stay close to the part. It was perfect. Oh, and the TV made it easy to log into our own Netflix and other accounts. Just ideal.

The best way I can describe the property is camping with a house. The absolute to fish on property, sit on the porch and enjoy a good book or make a fire and make s’mores is something our family loved.
Cell phone reception is horrible so it allowed us to truly unplug and reset as a family. We loved it and will be back soon.

We really enjoyed our stay. The home was clean with a wonderfully stocked kitchen. Very spacious relaxing setting loved the covered porch. The bedrooms are large, and beds were very comfortable! The pond is awesome, don't forget your fishing gear if you like to fish. The location if great so close to Crater of Diamonds State Park and downtown Murfreesboro. I recommend this home to anyone traveling to this area.

Scott Graves was simply the best host that anybody could ask for, the house was very beautiful, We all felt like we were home in a cottage in the country, the lake was beautiful and the boat ride was just a wonderful experience, they have a fire pit that made spending time with family a special treat which is so rear in this busy world of ours today. Spending time with family is crucial and finding the right spot to do it with your family other than home is this beautiful heaven on earth, everything about this place is beyond my expectation, Truly a relaxing experience. The towns people of Murfreesboro made us all feel like we were one of their own. I highly recommend this to everybody. I would love to rate this place 100 stars if I could but unfortunately I can only give the rating of what the questioner was asking, which is the five star rating. 👍🙏🕊️❤️🔥

The house was perfect couldn't ask for a better place to stay. Everything you needed except food was available.We were all adults in our 60s but it is also a great place to bring kids so much for them to do also close to Diamond mine was a plus.The only problem we had was when we got to the last brownie Lol great job Scott. We will be back thanks for having us.

My wife and I had a wonderful time staying at the rental . The crater of diamonds is very close , the rental had some buckets and a cart we borrowed that was very helpful. The brownies were delicious. House is very clean and comfortable .Very well stocked with miscellaneous items .Owners/caretakers had great communication.
Would definitely recommend staying here, we certainly will the next time we visit the area.

Shady Pines was a perfect place to stay!
Quiet, secluded and roomy.
We were able to spread out, take a walk to the lake or be all together in the spacious kitchen to put puzzles together and play cards after a long day at the Crater of Diamonds, which is right down the road.
Besides the delicious brownies, the wagon and buckets were an added bonus!
The ONLY thing we were a little disappointed about had nothing to do with Shady Pines...it was not being able to have a Marguerita with our food at the Mexican restaurant in town but the food and service made up for it. We didnt know we were in a dry county but hopefully after May 1st that will change for Telingas.
All in all it was fabulous!
Thank you!

Minutes away to the park; provided equipment was a nice bonus! Absolutely beautiful pond to admire and fish! Kids enjoyed fishing more than Diamond hunting. Ha!

We enjoyed our stay here so much! Everything was easy and worry free with check in and check out. Communication was fast when we had a couple questions early in our stay.The property is quiet and private. The home is comfortable and well stocked. I have zero complaints and if we return to the area I wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again!

Our family of 4 had a great time. The house was 5 minutes from Crater of the Diamonds State Park which made getting to and from the park easy. We had fun fishing in the pond and enjoyed the view from the back porch.
The house was clean and had everything we needed.

This property had everything we needed. Hosts responded quickly to any questions and were friendly. Home is close to the Crater of Diamonds. Had a pan of brownies waiting for us when we arrived. My family loved the brownies and it was a nice surprise. WI-FI worked well. This place is a home away from home.
